Yay!!! I saw my first open carrier sighting yesterday since I moved here to Provo at the beginning of the month. I saw him at the Village Inn Restaurant wearing a beautiful 5 shooter revolver in .50 caliber S&W. He saw my Colt Govt M1911-A1 .45 I was wearing. This was an awesome encounter, we actually shared stories on philosophy, Unalienable rights, freedom, open carry, and socializing, yes I admit this encounter was premeditated! I met the legendary Joe Sparky! What a pleasure. The restaurant was crowded, everyone looked like they enjoyed their meals, no one panicked. it was how it should be. Thankyou Joe, my brother and friend in LIBERTY. A good day it was to gain a new lifelong friend! Hope to see and meet more people open carrying!
